MUSEUMS AND ART GALLERRIES EXHIBIT THE CULTURAL HERITAGE OF A NATION

Nairobi Art Gallery EXTENSION

The design called for an ICONIC structure that respects the conservation aspects of the existing gallery and urban fabric of kenyatta avenue and uhuru highway.

Moreover, its aesthetic and function should capture the symbols of nation-hood while still instilling a sence of citizenry, security, confidence and com-munalism.

The structure should also be interpretive, rich in cultural identity and mean-ing, express shared goals of the kenyan people ,invoke political , historical and ideological codes of kenyans.
